Big Companies that have a strangle hold on the market suck ass. The more competition the better.
Very happy that streaming came about because satellite/cable were fuck buckets, and DISH was the #1 culprit for me.
Was with Dish for a number of years, and I knew I didn't have a contract, I hadn't re-upped in years and finally decided to stream. Called them, and those fuck sticks said I was still under contract....no...that's bull shit, and I have all records and copies of contracts I've signed saved in my email. After some him hawing around, this lady finally figured out I was right. They tried to say because of a service call a year ago, it constituted as another contract and that if I cancelled I was out an early termination fee for 12 months. No, I did not sign anything at that service call...piss off. This hassle went on for about a half hour. Luckily, the customer service lady didn't suck ass, was on hold multiple times, and this lady knew I was right and should couldn't find shit.
Finally, after about an hour, some lady got on the phone that sounded like she wanted to blow me, a "Senior Resolution Analyst" Basically was ready to give me whatever I want besides a ZJ over the phone...but....wait lady...what about this contract...."Um...there's no record and your last contract was signed 3 years ago." AHA. You fuckers tried to rail me in the ass. Bunch of swindling fucks. Cancel my service, right meow. And with that, I was done with DISH.
TLDR; Big Co Dish tried to fuck me, they didn't, the end. Sorry for hijacking the meme thread.
